ComInTec torque limiters (safety couplings) are essential mechanical components designed for installation along the kinematic chain. They are preferred over electronic safety devices due to their superior response time, enhanced reliability, configuration flexibility, and ease of installation and adjustment.

They are ideal for high-speed applications in harsh environments involving high inertia and heavy loads.
Unlike electronic systems, which often suffer from delayed reaction times, complex management, and multiple sources of error, mechanical limiters provide immediate protection.

Installing mechanical torque limiters ensures reliable and comprehensive protection, improving machine safety compliance (according to EN ISO 13849-1 standards) and significantly reducing machine damage and unproductive downtime.

  • Long service life with consistent reliability;
  • Optimal protection against environmental conditions;
  • Simple mounting for in-line and parallel transmissions;
  • Easy setting and adjustment;
  • Highly accurate and fast machine protection;
  • Special designs available for specific applications;
  • Competitive pricing without compromising quality;
  • “Made in Italy” certified quality.
  • Friction Series: Simple, economical, and featuring a slip function; suitable for dry and dusty environments.;
  • Disengage/Disconnect Series: High stability during transmission with instant disengagement and the option for free rotation;
  • Axial Series: Suitable for limiting compression and tension forces on crank mechanisms.;
  • Pneumatic Clutch Series: Clutch function with disengagement and the ability to adjust torque during motion.
Limitatore di coppia a frizione DF

DF

Friction Torque Limiter
A sliding safety coupling where the transmission component is fitted between two friction rings. It slips when the calibrated torque is reached. The essential choice for cost-effective protection.

Limitatore coppia sfere economico EDF/F

EDF/F

Economical Ball Torque Limiter
A safety coupling featuring simple and compact balls inserted directly into the drive element. Disengagement occurs quickly and safely if the calibrated torque is exceeded.

Limitatore coppia rulli DSR

DSR

Roller Torque Limiter
A roller safety coupling that allows for complete disengagement when the calibrated torque is reached. Suitable for transmitting high torque with high reliability in a compact size.

Limitatore coppia sfere DSS/SG/P

DSS/SG

Backlash-Free Torque Limiter
A high-tech ball safety coupling offering backlash-free transmission. This device features high sensitivity, ensuring instant and precise disconnection.

Limitatore coppia rotazione libera DSS/SG/RF

DSS/SG/RF

Free Rotation Torque Limiter
backlash-free safety coupling suitable for high speeds. It features free rotation (no residual torque) upon disengagement, which occurs precisely and immediately. Re-engagement is manual.

Limitatore coppia modulare DSM

DSM

Modular Torque Limiter
A robust, modular safety coupling suitable for heavy-duty industries, even at high speeds. After disconnection, the unit rotates freely with zero residual torque. Re-engagement is simple and manual.

Limitatore coppia riduttore DSS/F/SG/PR-V

PR

Torque Limiter for Gearboxes
A safety coupling designed to be mounted between the motor and gear unit, significantly reducing the device's overall footprint for the same power output. Available in both slip and release versions.

Limitatore forza assiale DSA

DSA

Axial Force Limiter
A safety coupling providing linear force limitation. Axial disengagement can occur in both compression and tension once the calibrated force is reached. Re-engagement is automatic.
